Spanish schools to teach pupils how to cope with climate crisis disasters
"Spanish children will be taught how to respond to floods, wildfires, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions in a drive to help prepare them for the growing impact of the climate emergency." >>

Systematic attribution of heatwaves to the emissions of carbon majors
Study "establish that the influence of climate change on heatwaves has increased, and that all carbon majors, even the smaller ones, contributed substantially to the occurrence of heatwaves. Our results contribute to filling the evidentiary gap to establish accountability of historical climate extremes."

'Block Everything' protests sweep across France, scores arrested

"In Paris, students and school age youngsters swelled the protesters' ranks. Over 300 protesters were arrested across the country, though many rallies were peaceful."

"The movement reflects anger with what protesters say is a dysfunctional ruling elite bent on austerity - the discontent deepened after the last government proposed cuts of 44 billion euros ($52 billion) in government spending."

" "Young people are the future, the old generation left us with a shitty world, a shitty government. It is up to us to fight to change that and dance on the ashes of the old world," student Alice Morin, 21 said."

Lives disrupted and stunted by ongoing climate disasters

"Unicef-commissioned report shows being unable to finish high school – and the associated wage loss – is the most significant impact of increasingly frequent disasters on young people. Experts and advocates fear the lifelong consequences facing young people are being overlooked in disaster responses as what were previously known as “one-in-a-hundred years” disasters increase in frequency and severity."

"Unicef Australia is calling for the government to create a policy framework to support young people during and after natural disasters. “[We need] a better plan around the things that children need, around education and having enough supports to help them with their mental health if they’re traumatised by an event."

So many of the world’s problems are directly attributable to the baby boom generation exploiting resources, hoarding wealth and clinging onto power. They had it all, and boy did they screw things up for the rest of us. 🤦‍♂️ #IntergenerationalJustice

"A 40-year life extension to one of Australia’s biggest fossil fuel developments so that it could run until 2070.
We are gambling with a place of extraordinary cultural heritage for the sake of short-term interests.
Emissions hurt the environment. People know this." >>

Learning interrupted

"Climate shocks are disrupting children’s education, putting their learning and their futures at risk."

"A new UNICEF analysis reveals that at least 242 million students in 85 countries or territories had their schooling disrupted by extreme climate events including heatwaves, tropical cyclones, storms, floods and droughts in 2024, exacerbating an existing learning crisis."

"Our leaders are collaborators with fossil fuel colonialists. This is the source of our communal dread. We act like colonial subjects because, in effect, that’s what we are. A child born now will experience 24 times the number of extreme climate events as a politician born in the 1960s. The IPCC’s latest report states emphatically that to spare the worst effects of climate breakdown there should be no new fossil fuel development."

Children at ‘existential risk’ from climate crisis, paediatrician says

"The climate crisis poses an “existential risk” to the health and wellbeing of all children and action to tackle it is needed immediately."

“Children exhibit high levels of concern over climate change and the mental health consequences, including post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, anxiety, phobias, sleep disorders, attachment disorders and substance abuse, can lead to problems with learning, behaviour, and academic performance.”

“It is wholly unjust that these vulnerable children should bear the greatest burden in terms of climate change, especially in the context of a government that is rolling back on its net zero policies.”

Intergenerational report highlights the threat of a hotter, less productive Australia due to global warming.

"At least 50% of Australia’s sandy coastline, a major drawcard for tourism, is under threat of erosion due to climate change."

Paris has been breached: after the hottest month on record the UK should be speeding up, not backtracking on climate policy. Read our latest article by Sylvan Lutz:

This may be a shot in the dark, but I might be writing an essay about the 7th generation social discount rate concept from #theministryforthefuture by #kimstanleyrobinson and I’m looking for interesting people to interview. Any recommendations? #intergenerationaljustice #climatechange #economics #discountrate #moralphilosophy

Climate anxiety in children and young people and their beliefs about government responses to climate change: a global survey

"Climate anxiety and eco-anxiety (distress relating to the climate and ecological crises) are gaining attention worldwide as people become increasingly aware of the current and future global threats associated with our warming planet."

"Climate change has important implications for the health and futures of children and young people, yet they have little power to limit its harm, making them vulnerable to climate anxiety."

"Climate anxiety and dissatisfaction with government responses are widespread in children and young people in countries across the world and impact their daily functioning. A perceived failure by governments to respond to the climate crisis is associated with increased distress."
